Panel Carts

Panel Carts and Sheet Goods Carts for Plywood, Drywall, and Sheet Metal

Sheet goods are heavy, wide, and awkward to carry. Moving plywood, drywall, doors, and sheet metal by hand takes two people and damages edges and corners. A cart built for flat material holds the sheets on edge or flat and moves a full load in one trip.

This collection covers flat-deck panel carts with side retainer lips, drywall carts, vertical and horizontal panel carts, A-frame carts and A-frame trucks, a narrow-aisle panel cart with a high handle, and long deck carts with a hydraulic lift for sheet goods and strip stock.

Load, Sheet Size, and Aisle Width

Choosing a Cart

Load, Sheet Size, and Aisle Width

Capacities in this collection run from 750 lb on the Easy Move panel cart up to 4,000 lb on the heavy-duty panel cart and the heavier long deck carts. Drywall carts carry 3,000 lb with a maximum usable panel height of 60 inches, and most panel and A-frame carts are rated at 2,000 lb.

Aisles matter as much as load. The Easy Move cart is built for narrow aisles and doorways, while A-frame carts come in deck widths from 24 to 36 inches and lengths from 36 to 72 inches. Tell us the sheet sizes, the load per trip, and your narrowest aisle or doorway, and we will match the cart.

Cart Types

Flat, Upright, or Lifted

Panel and Drywall Carts

Flat-deck carts with a side retainer lip hold plywood, drywall, and doors on edge, with capacities of 2,000 to 4,000 lb.

A-Frame Carts and Trucks

An A-shaped frame keeps sheets upright and stable, with a 1 inch lip, a parts tray, and a foot brake on A-frame carts.

Long Deck Carts

A hydraulic foot pump raises the steel deck from 31 to 49 inches, so long panels and strip stock are staged and moved at working height.

Built In

Details That Make Sheets Easier to Move

Retainer Lips

Side retainer lips on panel and drywall carts and a full-length lip on A-frame carts keep sheets from sliding off in transit.

Loading Help

The PRCT panel cart has rollers on one end to ease loading, and A-frame steel trucks use an angled nose plate that positions loads for lifting.

Adjustable Bays

Adjustable-bay versions of the heavy-duty panel cart let individual bays be removed or repositioned for different product sizes.

Send us your sheet sizes, load per trip, and narrowest aisle.

We will match the panel cart, A-frame cart, or long deck cart to your material and quote it.

Full Loads in One Trip

Full Loads in One Trip

The heavy-duty panel cart carries 4,000 lb on four 5 by 2 inch casters, two rigid and two swivel with brakes, and stands 34 inches tall for comfortable pushing.

A side retainer lip keeps plywood, drywall, and doors from shifting in transit.

Long Stock at Working Height

Long Stock at Working Height

Long deck carts put sheet goods, strip stock, and long components on a quarter-inch steel deck that raises from 31 to 49 inches with a hydraulic foot pump.

Frequently Asked Questions

Capacities in this collection range from 750 lb on the Easy Move panel cart to 4,000 lb on the heavy-duty panel cart and heavier long deck carts. Most panel and A-frame carts are rated at 2,000 lb. Tell us your heaviest load and we will size the cart.
A-frame carts hold sheets upright on both sides of a center frame and suit mixed sheet sizes. Flat-deck panel carts hold sheets on edge against a retainer and suit full stacks of plywood or drywall. We can quote both for your material.
It depends on the cart. Options in this collection include poly-on-steel, glass-filled nylon, rubber, phenolic, and steel casters, and some drywall carts are offered in glass-filled nylon or rubber. Tell us your floor surface and we will recommend one.
Several do not. The PRCT panel cart, drywall carts, horizontal panel cart, and A-frame carts ship knocked down for assembly. We will note assembly on your quote.
Lead time is quoted per order, based on the carts and quantities you choose.
